UPDATE 1. We will continuously update the information below.
There are a few issues in the new Version Update 10.0 that we are aware of and will fix as soon as possible:
[ul]
[li]Settings you have made in the inworld Options window are not saved when exiting Entropia Universe and you might automatically get graphics quality settings that are too high for the system you are using. (If you have chosen Low or Medium graphics quality settings, redo the change every time you log in and your performance will be better.) [/li][li]Air bubbles from swimming in water follow your avatar onto land. [/li][li]Armor Platings attached to armor pieces in Storage are not visible or stuck. [/li][li]You sometimes receive search windows from mining although you do not mine yourself. [/li][li]There is a problem that sometimes causes a fatal crash (otherwise known as “Blue Screen of Death” or “BSOD”) on nVidia-based systems. This mostly effects newer graphics card driver versions. With older drivers, the client might still crash but not always with Blue Screens. We are working together with nVidia and CryTek to resolve the problem. ATI-based systems are not affected. [/li][li]“Window Mode” can now be chosen in the Options window inworld. However, if you log in with full screen, you will not be able to switch over to window mode directly. A relog will resolve this.[/li][/ul]
If you get any problems or errors when downloading and installing the new version update, please have a look in the FAQs for quick help.
Thank you for you patience until these issues have been resolved.
Anyone else have the EU Client loader say you got less RAM than you do?
Ive got 4GB Ram on the motherboard, and 2Gb on the graphicscard, yet the loader says i do not meet minimum requirements cause it says i have 1Gb (i dont know WHERE the heck it finds that number)
MA should be aware of things like the messed up teleporters and perhaps do some work on the “black ava” problems… apparently nobody has reported those things yet :laugh:
first, if you have 32bit windows and 4gb of ram then only 3Gb of it is generally available for you. 1Gb will be reserved for system kernel use only. thats limitation of 32bit x86 architecture. Install 64bit OS and this specific issue is gone.
second.. windows vista and probably also windows 7 have feature like “shared graphics memory”.. depending on size of graphics memory on videocard, windows will grab chunk of ram (roughly 50% of videoram size) .. sucks.. for videocard with 2Gb of memory, windows grabbing another gigabyte for this purpose sounds about correct..
for example Windows reserves 500Mb of system ram when you use [FONT=Verdana]Nvidia Geforce 7950 GX2 1GB[/FONT]..
btw this memory that gets shared out can still be accessed by programs.. so its not completely lost
Known issues from my side.
I am aware that they may repeat from declared before me. But that is not the point.
Issues so far:
Single color avatar
Settings do not save
Resolution does not change
After teleportation sometimes TP is invisible. After revive TP is visible.
In inventory all icons are the same ( red rectangle thing with “replace me” text )
Hitting “T” .. revive countdown hang-up on 46th second
I have suspected that probably not all settings in “Advanced” apply. For instance putting on LOW quality terrain changes but Im not convinced that for instance lighting settings are changed. By going inside a building where there is lot of light emitters it seems that the light quality is like if settings were highest.
•You sometimes receive search windows from mining although you do not mine yourself.
I would like to expand on this bug seeing it has happen to me and the report above dosent make alot of sense ok i bought 200 probes and the first time i go mining the first 30 probes i droped this is what happend.
When you get a claim ie the search box says found say III oil and you follow the arrow and the beeping to where the claim shoul be and stand excalty on the spot but there is no graphic to put your extrtactor onto further more when you look in your inventory there is no claim certificate wtf isnt it bad enough you cant reach claims that are on hills but now when you get a claim you cant even mine becuase its not there fix this bug now dammit whats the bloody point of minig at all what a rip off this is i want my peds back that i spent on minig so far and all the claims i found that i cant get.
I also stood where the claim was supposed to be and resarted the game logged back in still no grpahic to mine or certificate. I also change different settings in the graphic option restarted no effect.
I continued to mine becuase i am stuborn and eventually after 50 probes i finally got a claim i could see and then went back to were i had the issues and it happend again my though is this seems to happen in certian areas on the map and yet works in other areas.
So when do i get my first pay check from MA for being a beta tester
I was getting that until I turned my graphics down from medium to low. Although things keep changing. Like sometimes I see my armor and sometimes I`m all gray. The disappearing teleporters are not fun either. I was also crashing alot then things seemed to stabilize enough that did a mining run. I actually came out ahead but he hill climb thing is ridiculous. Here is hoping for some good fixes in the next few days.
